It's genuinely funny to me but also fricked up that people don't hate this

      Wakanda is a fictional country made by two Americans of European-israeli descent in the 60's, of course it is just based on stereotypes at the core. Some later creators, like Priest, Hudlin and Coates, may be black but they're still Americans and aren't guaranteed to really understand how sci-fi Africa would be. To Lee and Kirby's credit, their Wakanda may have been based on stereotypes but at least the stone age leftovers were explained by the Wakandans only having learned engineering in the past 20 years. Why most other writers make them out to have had sci-fi tech since before the industrial revolution and still do backwards bullshit like trial by combat is beyond me.

      But yeah, things like dirt roads, rhino farms, straw roof skyscrapers, laser spears, etc. All of these are less excuseable because at least you can excuse the lack of democracy on cultural reasons and it's not like dictatorships don't exist in technologically advanced societies (the specifics are still kinda bullshit though), but things like the straw roofs on skyscrapers is just a complete failure to understand how technology shapes society. Actual African cities have concrete roofs on their tall buildings like all other modern cities, not because the architecture was lifted from foreigners, but because it makes more sense and is a better design. Likewise, if you invent combat lasers when you previously had spears, you don't just keep the spears and make them shoot lasers, you start using laser guns and the spear (if not abandoned entirely) is reduced down to a bayonette. Hell, Okoye shouldn't be disgusted at the idea of wearing robot armor, it should have been invented before she was born.
